Hopkins pleased with 'Cougar Town' role

Josh Hopkins has revealed that he is pleased with the way his Cougar Town character Grayson has developed.

The actor told the New York Post that he likes the fact that Grayson has more "goofy" moments now.

"I feel like I've had such a full character arc," he said. "He started so cold but he's really warmed up to not only his neighbours, but to the idea of being goofy. Being the straight man amid all the insanity is fun, but I'm glad he's got the licence to jump in on the craziness now."

Hopkins also explained that he likes the fact that some of his hobbies and personality traits have been incorporated into Grayson.

"I used to bring a guitar to work and I was playing it outside my trailer one day and [creator] Bill [Lawrence] pulled up in his golf cart, screeched to a stop, said, 'That's going to be in the next episode' and took off," he said. "Then it was. They're really good about seeing us doing something on set or talking about something, and use it.

"In the same regard, any weakness they see, they attack... They love attacking our weaknesses. But that's just the relationship we have on set - we all attack one another. As a group it's odd that we find so much humor in hurting other people's feelings!"
